Aberdeen is a city in Scotland. Nicknames for the city include the Grey City, the Granite City and the Silver City due to the predominant use of granite for buildings. Aberdeen has a rich history, and walking around one can see many fine examples of old architecture. Some lampposts bear the city’s Bon Accord Coat of Arms.
Sitting on the coast, Aberdeen has long stretches of sandy beaches, although taking the dubious honour of being the UK’s coldest city it is unlikely to see people sunbathing often. The main religion is Christianity, and there are many lovely churches around the city. Landmarks and attractions include Aberdeen Central Library, the Town House, the whimsical and castle-like Sheriff Court, the North of Scotland Bank building, the Salvation Army Citadel, the Music Hall, and many public statues. Aberdeen is home to the world’s second biggest granite building.
Aberdeen is well known for its lovely peaceful parks and gardens, and an abundance of pretty flowers secured the title of Britain in Bloom Best City on numerous occasions. Book your car rental for Aberdeen now!
